Lyrics
1 After these things I saw another angel coming down from heaven, having great authority, and the earth was illuminated
with his glory. 2And he cried mightily with a loud voice, saying, "Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and has become
a dwelling place of demons, a prison for every foul spirit, and a cage for every unclean and hated bird! 3For all the
nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, the kings of the earth have committed fornication with
her, and the merchants of the earth have become rich through the abundance of her luxury. 4And I heard another
voice from heaven saying, "Come out of her, my people, lest you share in her sins, and lest you receive of her plagues.
5For her sins have reached to heaven, and God has remembered her iniquities. 6Render to her just as she rendered
to you, and repay her double according to her works; in the cup which she has mixed, mix double for her. 7In the
measure that she glorified herself and lived luxuriously, in the same measure give her torment and sorrow; for she
says in her heart, 'I sit as queen, and am no widow, and will not see sorrow. 8Therefore her plagues will come in one day--death and mourning and famine. And she will be utterly burned with fire, for strong is the Lord God who judges
her. 9"The kings of the earth who committed fornication and lived luxuriously with her will weep and lament for her,
when they see the smoke of her burning,10standing at a distance for fear of her torment, saying, 'Alas, alas, that great
city Babylon, that mighty city! For in one hour your judgment has come. 11And the merchants of the earth will weep
and mourn over her, for no one buys their merchandise anymore: 12merchandise of gold and silver, precious stones
and pearls, fine linen and purple, silk and scarlet, every kind of citron wood, every kind of object of ivory, every kind
of object of most precious wood, bronze, iron, and marble;13and cinnamon and incense, fragrant oil and frankincense,
wine and oil, fine flour and wheat, cattle and sheep, horses and chariots, and bodies and souls of men. 14The fruit
that your soul longed for has gone from you, and all the things which are rich and splendid have gone from you, and
you shall find them no more at all. 15The merchants of these things, who became rich by her, will stand at a distance
for fear of her torment, weeping and wailing, 16and saying, 'Alas, alas, that great city that was clothed in fine linen,
purple, and scarlet, and adorned with gold and precious stones and pearls!
